    In my application I have to add a Menu Item in the System Pop-up Menu, just like Winzip does. So that, I can manipulate my application from the menu, whenever I Right-clicked on any file. I couldn't find any way out about how to do this. Please guide me to write the code in MFC and also please tell, what are the necessary Registry Key entries for doing this during the installation of the application?:confused: Sudipta Mukherjee

        When you say "system menu" I believe you mean the right-click menu in Windows Explorer? Search in MSDN for "Shell Basics" and then look at the "Extending the Shell" section onwards.
